Note that in Castro's Cuba -- where the regime is judge, jury and executioner -- verdicts and prison sentences are announced through "a state-run Web site."

From AP:

A court sentenced a Spanish man to four years in prison for his role as the driver in a car crash that killed the dissident Oswaldo Payá, the authorities announced Monday.

A state-run Web site said the Spaniard, Ángel Carromero Barrios, was found guilty of the equivalent of vehicular manslaughter in a July 22 crash near Bayamo that killed Mr. Payá and another dissident, Harold Cepero. Mr. Carromero and a Swedish passenger, Aron Modig, both activists in their own countries, had traveled to Cuba to meet and offer support for Cuban dissidents.
